So before I leave work today I'll check the sending switch with a meter. So the question is which of the sending units are for the gauge 1) the water outlet on the left side of the block or 2) the one on the front?

I have to change my speedo cluster out soon as I have the oil pressure buzzer issue, the trip odometer broke (487K) and now maybe the gauge.
